Jennifer W - Grand Rapids, MI 49503 (1 mi) - Computer Tutor - $37.50/hr.
Throughout my undergrad at Spring Arbor, I was a mentor as well as a co-leader of a small group to children ages K-12 which I thoroughly enjoyed. I also have had previous supervisory experience as the director of an after school program for an entire school year, as well as a day camp counselor for two summers; both with elementary age children as well. I enjoy working with this age group and plan to do school social work once I obtain my MSW. I have experience working one-on-one with children this age as well as in large group settings. I enjoy mentoring, tutoring, and encouraging youth at this age. Teaching children one-on-one is a passion of mine which is why I like to tutor. I enjoy watching kids learn new concepts and observing them master a skill for the first time. I like to teach in many different styles whether that be orally, visually, etc. What the child best learns fro

Wesley B - Grand Rapids, MI 49503 (1.3 mi) - Computer Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I worked as a substitute teacher for a charter high school in St. Louis, MO directly out of undergrad. I taught most subjects including Biology, Chemistry, Algebra, History and Language Arts. I feel comfortable in my ability to teach most subjects and have no issue working in difficult classrooms as I have grown accustomed to such environments working in St. Louis. Being no stranger to difficult classroom settings, I understand that ideal teaching conditions rarely exist. I enjoy to challenge of encouraging more distracted students to learn, and possess the compassion and patience to work with most students. If a teacher can earn a student's respect, which comes easier for a younger instructor such as myself, then positive reinforcement has a much greater impact on that student's motivation to learn. My experience teaching lends the skill to gain student's trust in confidence allowi

Nancy R - Grand Rapids, MI 49503 (1.5 mi) - Computer Tutor - $36.00/hr.
My teaching style is simply to provide an environment that is conducive to learning – one which supports collaboration and teamwork, student-centricity, personalization, fun, and humor. I am committed to providing the highest quality education for my students.
Each individual learns differently, and I have come to accept that I can't entirely please each and every individual in the classroom (especially when I have over 200 students). I have also come to accept that not every student will "like me". As an instructor, it is my role to present information in a way so students learn. I have realized that students learn, not because they think I am "cool", but rather because the information was presented to accommodate each and every learning style. Therefore, I try to use a variety of different mediums (e.g., visual, audio, etc.) when presenting the class material. As the eldest daughter

Salvador Q - grand rapids, MI 49503 (1.7 mi) - Computer Tutor - $55.50/hr.
What more better experience then to start at home by helping my little brother and sister. For the past five years I have tutored my brother and sister in many different subjects. I have done math, reading, science,history. Basically all elementary subjects.I am Bilingual and speak both English, and Spanish fluently. I try to make the subjects fun for them. For example i bring out cubes, candy, or fruits for math problems so they can visually see the mathamatical problem. If its science I try to make 3D projects so they can better understand, for example the solar system. I try to get there intrest so they can have fun and not be bored and feel like its a waist of time. I know everyone learns in different ways and I understand that because im the same way. Im very patient, and very easy going. My goal is to give them the education they need to succeed in life.

Christopher M - Grand Rapids, MI 49503 (2 mi) - Computer Tutor - $62.50/hr.
My love of mathematics and science has driven me to where I am today. I have earned a BS in chemistry and have just graduated from MSU's medical school. This has provided me with an extensive background in the basic as well as the more complex maths and sciences needed to achieve the successes I have. As an undergraduate majoring in chemistry, I was provided with many opportunities to use my abilities to help those classmates of mine who had questions or needed extra help. During the last 8 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor students in chemistry, basic mathematics, and work with elementary school afterschool program for at risk children. I have extensive experience with research papers and lab reports. Patience, willingness, compassion, and time are key characteristics that I can provide to any child that needs it. I believe in teaching a child in not only the process of

Kristy K - Grand Rapids, MI 49503 (2.1 mi) - Computer Tutor - $37.50/hr.
As a graduate of a Big Ten school, and a current master’s level student, I have had many focuses in school that I can teach in the tutoring setting. I also currently work in education as a tutor and a substitute teacher, sometimes as a child care worker. Subjects: political science, biology, math through pre-calculus, accounting, English, computer technology, and a few more. I have honed my writing and research skills through my experience in my master’s program, and through a year working as a full time staff writer for a health and wellness company. My teaching experience and family have aided me in developing a teaching style that appeals to the four different types of student learners. My teaching methods vary depending upon the subject matter and the pupil’s preferences. I enjoy getting to know students and customizing their learning experience to the methods that will best serve th

Raymond N - Grand Rapids, MI 49506 (2.7 mi) - Computer Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have taught math from grades 8 to 12 in a public high school. As a professor, I taught statistics to undergraduates in two private universities (Case Western Reserve University and Dartmouth) for a total of twelve years, and biostatistics at the graduate level at Harvard and Dartmouth for 17 years.

I am a very patient person who has been called a natural teacher. I speak clearly and well. I can easily understand difficulties that students have with statistics and mathematics, and I am creative in devising appropriate techniques for mastering the subject matter. I very much enjoy teaching and my enthusiasm for my discipline is easil

Elizabeth S - Grand Rapids, MI 49505 (3.5 mi) - Computer Tutor - $38.00/hr.
For most of the last four years I have been involved in some aspect of education, from teaching children in Korea to tutoring college students in writing. Through these experiences I have learned that the most important quality of a good teacher (besides extensive knowledge of the subject area) is patience. My philosophy is to treat learners with patience and respect. I am currently the writing skills specialist at a local college and have three years of tutoring experience in writing, two of which were during the time I was completing my Master's Degree. In 2004, I spent six months teaching English in Korea. Because of my experience overseas, my seven years of coursework in Spanish, and my tutoring of foreign students in writing, I have a great deal of knowledge helping students whose first language is not English. I feel comfortable assisting students of any level with writing and

Alisa R - Kentwood, MI 49508 (4.3 mi) - Computer Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have earned a BA from Calvin College which has certified me to teach at the k-8 levels in social studies and liberal arts and have earned a Masters degree in Counseling Education (certified K-12)which has given me the ability to work wtih students who are difficult to motivate and achieve. During my years, I have gained a wonderful rapport with students of all levels (K-12) while working at Huntington Learning Center. My experience is with students of diversity in areas of culture, ethnicity, social, and a wide range of ability. I know that students can work and achieve if the right kind of motivation is given. Each child has their own learning style and interest which needs to be taken into consideration when working with thenm and then to be taught in that mode and style.
My goal for the student is to learn through motivation when the interest is used in the lessons which will th

I am currently working on my MA in Counseling through Liberty University. I understand that one teaching style is not a "one size fit all" solution for all students. I am a very patient, laid back, and understanding individual. This has come through my work experience

I was a Missionary in Panama for fourteen years. Learned Spanish through a two-year course in the country. As a missionary, I went on to teach Literacy and Bible to indigenous peoples there.
